Welcome home, and thank you for your service. You have followed in the tradition of a long line of men and women from Gerritsen Beach who have served our country in the military.

Thanks again to Buddy DeWitt, who has personally had the signs made to welcome home our men and women. Keep those who are currently serving in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere, in your prayers. Some of our own from the beach are back overseas for a 2nd or 3rd tour.
